Answer:
"Under the astonished, wide-eyed moon, with the fires casting strange shadows upon these towering figures, I am rather inclined to believe him."
Explanation:
The use of the words "astonished" and "wide-eyed" that are used to describe the non-human presence of the moon creates a feeling of wonder. It depicts a scene in which the moon is large (wide-eyed) and beautiful (astonished). This and the description of the fires and their shadows creates an almost magical scenario to help the reader envision what the narrator is seeing. The personification aids in this, allowing us to understand how the narrator <em>feels</em> as well (wonder).
The words "casting upon" can also be considered personification, but it is not relevant in this case.

Answer:
The aye-aye is one of the most <u>extraordinary</u>-looking creatures on earth.
Explanation:
Every word has two kinds of meaning:
- Denotation - what the word literally means;
- Connotation - the emotional or cultural association the word carries.
The word that would create the most positive connotation is <em>extraordinary. </em>When we say that something is extraordinary, we think that it's very unusual (in a positive way) or remarkable.
When something is outlandish, it is freakishly strange or odd. The connotation of this word is somewhat negative. When something is strange, it's unusual or difficult to explain, and when something is unusual, it's something that doesn't commonly occur. The words <em>strange </em>and <em>unusual </em>have a relatively neutral connotation.
Thus, the correct option is extraordinary.
